Is it possible to have '&' in a label caption? When I add something like AB&CD in the caption property of a label it appears as ABCD.

    Use &&, like AB&&CD

    The & is an accelerator character, you can use it to make a shortcut to the button/option you put this text on -

    For instance if you had a button called 'Place Order' on a form and you wished the P to be a shortcut key to this button, you would put '&Place Order' in the label caption. Pressing P on the keyboard would 'click' on this button - saving the user from having to move the mouse and click (which some people aren't very good at!).

    Useful to help exprienced users navigate menus quickly and speed up productivity.

    As lphan suggests, use && for the actual & character in a caption.
